Description

A group of unidentified Australian non commissioned officers (NCOs) and their wives and children on board a transport ship which will return them to Australia. Here they are talking and enjoying some light refreshments. The NCOs are probably members of the British Commonwealth Forces Korea (BCFK), based in Japan. Many of the servicemen's wives and children accompanied them to Japan for their period of service.
